Funny how these things are always seen from the particular chair you happen to sit in. The negotiations are deadlocked, their intransigence is described as “incredibly unreasonable”, our intransigence is described as “very reasonable”.
Accordingly to the Sunday Times we’re about to offer £60 billion - round 1 to the EU if that’s true.
Yep agree with 60bn and that approximates to my calculations inclusive of a 2 year transition period.
However, problem with that remains what kind of access to the free market we will subsequently have.
Key at the moment is about approach to negotiations. UK thinks it will leave in 2019 and not pay a penny more which is totally unreasonable. Cloud cuckoo land.
50-60bn indicates fair value to both side with something they can work with. Having said that - that is not much different to our current obligations now.
I honestly can not imagine what the fuss is about. It is one of UK politicians making wanting some super deal which is pie in the sky. :whistling
